Socio-economic impact valuation of events
Summary
Informa, a leading international intelligence, events and scholarly research group, required technical support to design a socio-economic impact framework to understand the impact of their events.
How we helped
Little Blue Research supported Informa by designing a methodology for determining the socio-economic value of events and their legacy to different stakeholder groups. The project was undertaken using a phased approach from scoping and piloting through to the development of a scalable framework to measure the impact of any of Informa’s events.
